Re: 778th Tank Battalion

My father, Warren Erickson, received commendation from Patton that went to participants of the Battle of Metz.It included the 778th Tank Battalion.Dad was in Armored Basic 521, Tank Gunner 1736, and Tank Driver 1736.He was awarded three battle battle medals including the Bronze Star for heroic action in combat.

The military website will be visited shortly as I piece together my father's story.
